Pancake Day traditions were upheld in Scarborough yesterday, with plenty of flipping and skipping in the resort.
The seaside town has long-held a pancake race, which usually starts with the Mayor of Scarborough ringing the pancake bell at noon to start the activities on North Street.
Yesterday the honour went to Councillor John Ritchie, this year’s Mayor, with crowds brandishing their frying pans and pancakes battling it out to be the best flipper and runner in the race on Aberdeen Walk.
